#pypa-dev logs for Saturday the 3rd of October, 2015

(Back to #pypa-dev overview) (Back to channel listing) (Animate logs)
[15:42:42] <xafer> Ivo: commonprefix seems to be "taken character-by-character" :o
[15:46:45] <Ivo> xafer: yeah on reflection seems pretty useless
[15:46:48] <Ivo> http://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201003/whats_the_point_of_ospathcommonprefix.html
[15:46:56] <Ivo> even google thinks so lol
[15:47:11] <Ivo> does make you wonder why the heck its a stdlib function
[15:47:53] <Ivo> Hopefully I was thinking of https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.path.html#os.path.commonpath
[15:48:03] <Ivo> Wonder why the heck it survived its way into python 3
[15:48:12] <xafer> apparently, never heard of it before and not missing it ^^
[15:53:27] <xafer> commonpath seems indeed more useful
